Saved one from the scrapper

I need to look at my junk pump that is uninstalled. The trick is to clean it out without the junk running further down into the pump or engine. Maybe remove some covers, spray, shop vac sucking out one cover and air blowing in another.

Care to expand on that?

Tank got scrapped but I got the truck. The question is what next? Some bonehead cut the batt cables so I’ll fix that and put batts in it. Gotta clean out the tank. Suppose I could slave fuel and batts off the ‘70. But what about the shutoff cover being left off? Dare I try to clean it out and...

I pass through there a lot in the summer on my way to escape this desert heat in the Santa rosas. Which MV do you have?

No progress but still interested if we have some time. I'll run it by my guys.

Doesn’t look like a military bed to me.

Wussed out on the HG replacement and dropped it off with the local heavy truck mech.

Maybe post vid to Youtube and link it.

Pull an injector out and see how far the fuel shoots. Should be 3-4’. Careful, will pierce skin.

Need HG TM...is there a way to fix all the broken links?

The key is how much is it moving up and down? Needs to be a good 1/4"-3/8", not just 1/8". Put a pressure gauge in place of the fuel bleeder on top on final fuel filter.

Keep it up! I gotta get the motivation to do head gaskets, it's desert season. Then hopefully paint when winter start to warm back up in a few months.

Status is still the same. Still on my desk waiting for play-around time. Current work situations don't look promising but I'll see if I can make some time. Keep reminding me.

Bang around a little bit, listen for buzzing while ready to evacuate....repeat a few times.

I would pull the plug out of the center of the hydraulic head on the injection pump (looks like a gas engine distributor) and soak with penetrating oil like Kroil for a day or two so that hopefully the plunger doesn't stick and the button come off the bottom.

Gonna swap the IP?
